ABC Christmas - 1/2 way reminder


 Hi everyone! Here is my card for the ABC Christmas challenge 1/2 way reminder!! You have 1 week left to enter into our F for FELT or FABRIC  challenge!!!!

I was really unsure if I'd get a card made for this week, as I couldn't find any fabric that was "Christmassy"....but I searched through my tub of scraps and found this really cool sparkly paper/fabric - it almost feels like that stuff on the back of embroidered tshirts (under the tshirt) - do you know what I am talking about??? ...not even sure what it is called.  It is more fabric than paper so I thought I would use up some of the bits!  After the card was done, I stamped the sentiment with Stazon...and stupidly I didn't line it up and now it is crooked....oops! LOL  Shhhhhhhhh, don't look!!!!!
I have used Barry Throughout the Year from the Stamp Fairy.






Thanks for popping by....be sure to check out the challenge & join us this week!!!
Hugs,

Chris

Incy Wincy Designs challenge....make a SHAPED card

HAPPY MONDAY!!!

                           This week the Incy Wincy Design team has a GREAT challenge for you.....
make a SHAPED card...so no squares or rectangles!!!! 

Our sponsor this week is Bugaboo stamps & they always have an amazing prize...so I hope you'll join us!!!!

I have used Merry Christmas to Ewe from Bugaboo and Shape EZ Snowflake card template.
The snowflake card turned out really cute but I have to admit I totally CASE'd my friend NETTY on this one (thanks Annette!!!) - she is the queen of shaped cards and I am always at a loss on what to do with them!  I also used her cloud template to create chalked clouds behind the sheep!  The snow is 3D glittering crystal paint and the hat has 3D white puff paint - both from Michaels and the ribbon is crinkle seam binding I bought from Etsy!  I inked the edges and added a few rhinestones!






And then, head on over to the CHALLENGE blog and see what the rest of my teamies have done!!!!

Have fun and good luck!!! I hope you'll join us this week! If you do, you could win a GREAT prize this week!!! WOOO HOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

2 Cute Ink NEW RELEASE!!!


Hello everyone! Happy Friday!!! 



It is time for our weekly NEW RELEASE from 2Cute Ink....actually there are TWO this week....Flower Bunny & Irish Jig Bunny.  I have used Flower Bunny!But head to the blog to see the Irish Jig bunny - he IS cute!!!! I have him coloured but didn't get time to make a card with him as this week is Parent/Teacher interviews and a very busy, crazy week!!! 

I have coloured the bunny with my Koh-i-noor pencils and gamsol and added a bit of stickles to the center of the flower.  The paper is from Kaiser (Lilac Lane) and the DP is from SU.  Ribbon and button are from my stash! This is the first time I tried this type of 'bow' and it turned out alright, its different & better than my usual 'knot'!! LOL 




Head on over to the shop to pick up this cutie for yourself!!!  Thanks for popping in!
Hugs,
Chris
